Fibre Optic Linear Heat Detector for Fire Detection
Optimum Safety in Tunnels and Special Hazard Buildings 10,000m Detection range. Or 4 times up to 6,000m LIOS DE.TECT is developed for efficient and pinpoint fire detection in road and rail tunnels. Since its initial introduction in 1997, it has revolutionized the safety standard in underground transport facilities as it enabled the complete monitoring…

Fibre Optic Temperature Measurement in Process Engineering
The primary considerations in the design and operation of processing facilities are safety and protecting the environment. Both concerns are dependent upon to maintaining the integrity of the many vessels and lines containing potentially hazardous chemicals, and the two most critical parameters affecting these containment devices are temperature and pressure. It is absolutely essential to…

LNG and LPG Containment Integrity Monitoring Solutions
LIOS provides an integrated cryogenic plant monitoring system for LNG or LPG storage facilities, liquefaction, re-gasification, peak-shaving comprising of: Leak Detection, Foundation Monitoring and Pipeline Monitoring The use of natural gas will increase significantly in the next decades necessitating the erection of additional transport infrastructure. Even the transport via gas pipelines is widely used nowadays…

Optical Coil Protection – Temperature Monitoring of Induction Furnaces
Monitoring Refractory Linings – Dependable protection of the induction coil against overheating and, the more so, against contact with molten metal is of vital importance for ensuring safe and reliable operation of an induction furnace. Crucible cracks and erosion are detected and localised reliably and precisely and normal refractory wear is under close control. Properly…

Environmental Monitoring
Dyke and Dam Leakage Detection Ecological engineering is an emerging study of integrating ecology and engineering, concerned with the design, monitoring and construction of ecosystems. LIOS Distributed Temperature Sensing technology offers an ideal basis for many kinds of environmental monitoring tasks. Seepage Monitoring in Dams and Dykes Internal erosion, one of the major causes of…
